Hapoel Hadera is getting stronger. The Reds signed today (Wednesday) for one season the Nigerian stopper Philip Ifula, who came from the second Russian league. Apollo is Hadera’s third acquisition this summer after the additions of goalkeeper Guy Herman (Hapoel Adumim Ashdod) and Slovenian left-back Kalman Sturm (teacher).
Apollo, who will celebrate his 21st birthday in about two weeks, moved to Russia at the age of 18 and signed with Sushi. In March 2021 he moved to Kazakhstan and four months later moved to Dolgoprodny from the second Russian league, in the media he recorded 16 league appearances in which he scored one goal.
The one who is expected to vacate his place in the squad and say goodbye to Hapoel Hadera is the brakeman Jonathan Sisa, who will leave after 3 years during which he became one of the most stable and valued brakemen in the Premier League.
